Denim Moments

Do you happen to know that the word "denim" was actually derived from a name of town in France, de Nimes,which was the place where this fabric was first made and worn? It was later shortened into "denim".
It's kinda funy, I think.

So,I'm almost sure that everyone owns at least one pair of denim pants and nothing is more comfy than wearing a pair of good jeans. Well, I think in the history of denim, we all owe big thanks to Levi Strauss, the pioneer in blue jeans industries.

I rarely wear jeans on weekends because I already have my jeans moments during the weekdays. However, since these pairs of jeans are still new, I guess they should be given the honor.
I love weekends a lot, and everything that I wear on weekends are stuff that I consider special. My weekdays perfumes and weekend ones are different, too. I don't know what kind of mindset that is, but I just love............ weekends and holidays.



Please excuse the lame editing. I am so sleepy at the moment.



So, talking about Levi Strauss, the dark blue jeans I was wearing is from Levi's ladies. It is affordable, and it is really really comfortable. It costs less than 400,000 IDR. I know it is not very cheap, but for a pair of jeans this comfortable, it's worth the money.
A good pair of jeans will last for as long as you want them to last. Plus, it is a good investment, on something that can last like some 10 years or more. This saying is often heard but rarely done. So, start now, ppl!!! Invest!!!!!
Talking about good jeans, Levi's is like a household brand. It is affordable, sturdy, comfy and never goes out of date, especially if you opt for Levi's 501. This particular type has a unique story behind it, but I am too lazy to describe.
You know what you should do? Google it. Get back to me with the answer and I will give you a second hand Levi's pants.
You are not such a fool to believe me, are you?
But the unique story part is true, anw. Search for it!!!! Function your fingers!!!!

The other brand I usually wear is MNG jeans. The price ranges from average to expensive. Personally, I love this brand. However, some girls think that the design and the color are a bit turn-off. Well, as for me, I am particularly interested in their design and cutting. Nothing fits my huge hippo bottoms as good as MNG jeans. The only downside is its sizing, which is a bit inaccurate because it is different for every design. I guess, somehow they forgot to set a standard sizing to all their manufacturers.



Take this shredded light blue jeans, for example. My sister picked the usual size and when we tried it on, we were aware that it was a bit loose. But since it was the last piece and moreover, she was madly in love with shredded jeans, she decided to just go on with it. True enough, it is really really lose on her. Well on me, it is quite loose and although I have to wear a belt to keep them in place, I don't mind. It's better for an outfit being too loose than too tight. Well, I don't think my sister will ever wear it for the third time. The jeans will soon be mine. Yay.....



The shredded front part is my favorite part. And look at my snake skin purple flat. Cute, no?
Thank you!!!!
The snake skin motif is not very clear here, though.

And here's my sister. She complained that I seldom feature her in this blog. Haahaha.
Here goes your poses, sis.



There are still lots of good brands out there. Really really expensive jeans and by expensive, I mean literally, expensive.
My advice is find a brand whose cutting suits your body the best and stick to it your whole life. Jeans has become a necessity in one's wardrobe. You can never go wrong with a pair of jeans. True?



That's it for now and good morning everyone, cause it is one a.m in the morning. I am insane, I know. I am officially a fugly night owl.
I am working on the next post. Till then, adios ppl.

Stuff that dreams are made of

Yep, that's the material of this dress!

Last Saturday, I was lovingly clothed by Lind's online shop " The chick's Dollhouse". I love her stuff to death!!!

We call this one " The robot dress"

Forget my fug face, look how the dress slims me down!!!
This totally debunks the claim that camera adds 10 pounds on you!

Wearing pink + brown on moi eyes.

Well, that's it. Toodles :)

Print Is All Around

As I've told, I am having a big crush with blue, especially bright and shocking blue, electric blue. So here is another blue to add to the community.
The sleeves is a bit puffy, and it's a bit loose when worn. Its gold buttons perfect the combo.






Perhaps it is not very obvious here, but the wrist is asymmetric. Unique.



Paired with futuristic black and gold necklace and similar earrings. Hahaha.
If you notice, perhaps you will know that this necklace is similar to the design of House of Harlow accessories, Nicole Richie's accessories line. Her design is edgy with simple cut and colors.
But this is no Harlow, just a similar design :)



With my partner in crime.
The heels I was wearing are pretty to look but they are not comfortable at all!! The back zipper has a very sharp point and all night it kept pricking on my ankle. Well, beauty is pain, ain't it so?

So, I think I had tortured myself enough that night, so when I went on to the movie with my boyfriend I changed into these more comfortable towering patent mary-jane pumps.



Ha!!!! You would be surprise that I had a plan B for the shoes, wouldn't you?
I always have plan B when it comes to dressing up. Be it another pair of shoes, another outfit, another accessories. Because you don't know what could happen. And I think most girls do.
My dress was torn once, and luckily I had my plan B.
My blazer was too tight once, and again luckily I had my plan B.
:D :D :D



Mary jane saved the night (well... saved my feet, I should say).
Here we were in the cinema, watching Wolfman, which was a horrible movie, imo. What had crossed Benicio del Torro's and Anthony Hopkins' minds that those two supposedly great actors agreed to take the roles, I honestly have no idea.



Having slept half way through the movie, I had this sleepy look on my face when I got home.
Still, it didn't keep me from posing before getting into the house. My boyfriend shook his head and said, " Why girls love taking pictures?".
I absolutely have not the slightest idea, baby.
We are girls. What do you expect?



Adios, everyone.

Spice Up Your Life (with colors)

Well, here I am again, after half a month and so, I finally manage to sneak a bit time to update the blog. Sneak a bit time, is that the right phrase? Well, I'll think about that later, I am sneaking up now..... gotta hurry....

These pictures are from fiirst day of Chinese New Year. I love love February so so so much. I wish it didn't end so fast. Lots of holidays, lots of eating, lots of resting, lots of free time.

My eye make-up for the day:



Got lots of freckles on my face. :D :D :D



My mom said," You look scary with all that make-up on, you know. Not to mention old and..... just old. "
Hahaha. I will take that as a compliment, mom.



Suede blue belt and reddish bangle to go with the electric blue blouse.




Puffy armed. I deliberately photographed the arms, because they were so pretty. The reason why I bought it : the color and the draping puffy arms.
SO LOVELY, imo.



And of course, the back detail. Gold zipper.



The black gray pants is from The Chicks' Dollhouse. Yes, go and purchase, quick!!!!
It has this harem pants feel but not that loose and baggy. It is straight cut and has a side zipper, which, I think, is perfect to conceal big tummy. In this case, my big tummy.
:D :D :D



Paired with a pair of red shoes and red clutch. Inspired by Sarah Jessica Parker, cause I once saw her picture on a fashion blog sporting blue dress and red shoes. Except that I am not as skinny and as fashionable as her.







Gotta back to work. Sneaking up time is over.
Adios. :)
